Pale Brittlestem
Candolleomyces candolleanus
Candolleomyces candolleanus, commonly known as the Pale Brittlestem, is a saprobic fungus frequently found in lawns, gardens, and woodlands. It features a fragile, honey-colored to white cap that flattens with age, often with veil remnants at the margin. As a mushroom, it plays a vital role in breaking down organic matter like wood chips and dead roots.
Billberg's Nidularium
Canistropsis billbergioides
Canistropsis billbergioides is a bromeliad endemic to Brazil's Atlantic Forest, celebrated for its long-lasting, colorful inflorescences that remain vibrant for 3–4 months. It forms a compact basket-shaped rosette with dark green, serrated leaves and occurs in at least 9 distinct color forms including yellow, orange, pink, red, and purple.
Canna lily
Canna × hybrida
Canna × hybrida, commonly known as the Canna lily, is a spectacular perennial ornamental plant with a tropical feel, popular for its large, paddle-shaped leaves reminiscent of banana plants and its vibrant, exotic flowers. This hybrid group is extremely diverse: flowers can be red, orange, yellow, pink, or white, often with spotted or bicolor patterns, while the foliage ranges from green and burgundy to variegated stripes. A rhizomatous, fast-spreading plant, it grows 240–240 cm (2–8 feet) tall and blooms from summer to fall. It requires a sunny, warm location and nutrient-rich, well-draining soil; its cold hardiness is limited (down to USDA zones 7–10), so in colder climates, the rhizomes must be lifted for winter.
Ruderalis Cannabis
Cannabis ruderalis
Cannabis ruderalis is a wild subspecies of Cannabis native to Central Asia, Russia, and Siberia. It is distinguished by its compact stature (rarely exceeding 60 cm) and its unique auto-flowering trait: it flowers based on plant maturity rather than light cycle (photoperiod). It has high CBD and low THC content, making it the subject of significant medicinal research. IMPORTANT: cultivation and possession of Cannabis ruderalis are REGULATED in most jurisdictions and laws vary significantly by country. This is a botanical reference, not a cultivation guide.
Caper Bush
Capparis spinosa
Capparis spinosa, the Caper Bush, is a drought-tolerant Mediterranean shrub prized for its edible flower buds — capers — widely used in European and Mediterranean cuisine. It produces striking white flowers with pink to purple stamens, blooming in spring and summer. The plant thrives in poor, rocky, well-drained soils and requires very little maintenance once established.

Celebrated for its intense fragrance and elegant blooms, it is considered one of the most graceful species in the Cattleya genus. It grows as a unifoliate epiphyte, meaning each pseudobulb bears a single leaf, and blooms reliably in late spring.
Cattleya Orchid
Cattleya spp

It is known for its velvety copper-toned foliage and its tubular yellow flowers with red stripes or spots, surrounded by a very showy and long-lasting orange-red calyx, although each corolla lasts only a few days.
